Disgraced ex-lawyer Davina Murray had been reprimanded for her conduct three times in five years before being struck off in February, including for trying to falsely claim $67,500 from her deceased partner's estate.
Davina Murray was convicted and sentenced in 2013 to 50 hours of community service for smuggling an iPhone, lighter and cigarettes to prisoner Liam Reid, a convicted killer with whom she was in a relationship.
The Lawyers and Conveyancers Disciplinary Tribunal ordered that Murray be struck off the roll of barristers and solicitors at a penalty hearing on February 26.
The tribunal has now released their reserved reasons for the decision.
The reasons included her three previous transgressions as a lawyer, the first relating to improper receipt of fees.
